ings worn in as a deputy himself.
Tho story of this reporters work is a thrill
ing one, and its elimination is another tri-
umph for the reporter as a detective.
Mr.. Barron, it may be stated for the bene-
fit Of those not already familiar with the case,
was found dead in front of 1.-THE vault of tho in
stitution on Feb. %, 1873. He had been bound
hand and foot and gagged by his murderers.
Only a small sum was taken from the bank,
however. A reward Of $1,000 was offered
for tho arrest Of the murderers by the truG-
tees of the bank, but no trace of them could
DO found.
Barron was aboIt 45 years of age and had
held the office of treasurer of the town for a
number of years. He was a deacon in the
~Congregationalist church and a prominent
member of tho Masonic fraternity. His
life was insured in the Mutual Life Insurance
company, OF New York, the Connecticut
Mutual and other companies to the amount
of $4,000. 1t was this fact and tho
fact that there was a slight and now ex-
planned irregularity In his accounts that
started the story of his suicide, and o detec-
tive who bound and gagged himself in tho
samo position as Barron was found fostered
this belief.
Oliver Cromwell, alias Smith, as one Of
STAINS confederates is variously known, has
also been arrested. Stains life has been ono
long succession of unspeakable bad deeds, if
his sons story can be believed, and his alleged
accomplice gives him a very hard name,
though denying knowledge of the murder.
Stain himself declal - an alibi, but it is
thought doubtful if he can prove it.

good condition Hoods S%arsaparilla is a

by the confession of his own son in the muir

Keeping Apples in Wnter.

The great secret of keeping ap-
pies through the winter is to store
them in II well.ventilated room OF

ing point as possible without actu-
ally freezing the apples, Apples
and potatoes should never be kept
in the same cellar, or, if this is un-
favorable, the potatoes should be
kept in the warmeSt part of the
cellar, and the barrels OF apples,
well heaped up, near the windows,
where, on days when the air out
side is only Il few degrees above
freezing, they can be treated to Il
cold breeze from the open window,
while, at the same time, the atmoS-
phere in the part of the cellar where
the potatoes are kept does not fall
below forty degrees. With a Their
